The moment of one of today’s Russian strikes on Kyiv.

I can see that fewer and fewer people are reading news from Ukraine. I understand that on a Sunday morning, people don’t want to read about war. They want to sleep a little longer, drink good coffee, and sit in the sun. I understand that. The algorithms on X limit content about war, destruction, and suffering. You have to make an effort to even see this information.

All of this is understandable on a human level. But unfortunately, if you remove Putin and the war from your information feed, they do not disappear from reality.

Putin is a sadist and a maniac. He is a threat to all of humanity.

There needs to be active resistance. News from Ukraine needs to be shared. People need to keep their focus.

Despite a sleepless night, I’m still here. And I’m grateful to everyone who continues to stand with us.

One day, we’ll drink morning coffee together in a beautiful, peaceful Kyiv.

Ukraine has the largest delegation in the country's history at the 2024 Paris Paralympics.
Guess why.

🎂 As I LOVE to do every Nov 11, wishing a HAPPY 30th BDAY to the MOSAIC browsers which is at the root of literally EVERYTHING we do online. Developed by a small visionary group of students at @NCSAatIllinois, the world changed for ever. Short thread 1/n

@SeriouslyRonP @tunetheweb @tkadlec @PerfNowConf Yes. Correct! For changes I agree. But if you don’t start from scratch…?

[Barry Pollard @tunetheweb]

This! So much this!

We need to move on from RUM just measuring whether there’s a problem or not (with a number), to it helping us fix that (with attribution) to tell us WHY.

Just landed in Amsterdam. Really looking forward to two days of web performance talks at #perfnow and meeting all fellow performance geeks!

@Cornubot Sålt många böcker i Ukraina?

[Magnus Dahl ([email protected]) @twittmdl]

@JohanHedberg Ett räcker - dagen efter. Fler email -> tjat!
Sen är frågan var du får emailadressen ifrån. Om jag nyss gav den till dig och du var tydlig med vad du tänkte använda den till. OK. Eller om jag loggade in. OK. Om du använde någon av 3:e-parts datatjänsterna och köpte den. EJ OK!

@staffandopping @svtnyheter @ttnyhetsbyran Vad är skillnaden? Och hur påverkar det R4:s drift?

Marinka. The city that no longer exists.

Det behövs inga atombomber. Konventionella vapen gör sitt.

[Magnus Dahl ([email protected]) @twittmdl]

@liran_tal Yes please! Thank you!

@Ericson_ubbhult Kanske snabbaste sättet att få reservkraft på plats i väntan på annat. Och om Svenska Kraftnät hade upphandlat det när de hade chansen. Men en intressant fråga är väl vad 1 MWh kostar att framställa. Inte lönsamt då beslut togs, men antagligen nu.

@HenriHelvetica @feather @simonswiss @Una The old iMac 27 with 2560x1440 screen, not the 5K, has target display mode. I have the same setup and the same camera issue. It’s a great monitor!

@Cornubot I kombination med hur stor exporten är

[Magnus Dahl ([email protected]) @twittmdl]

URLs and subdomains are not just ”tech stuff”!

[Rutger Roffel  @Rudcher]

Google Maps changed its URL from "https://maps [dot] google [dot] com" to "https://google [dot] com/maps".
Looks like it's not a big deal, but when you grant the location permission in your browser you now grant it to the whole #google [dot] com domain. 🤨

@alexanderhanff This is what they call “strutsmentalitet” in swedish. Or “ostrich mentality” in english, which basically means you put your head in the sand and wait until it passes by, since you really have no clue how to handle… You will get no answers, because they don’t know what to answer
